I have at least 10 of those views. When a song won't leave my head, I have to play the video a few times. (I refuse to download that song on iTunes) I have to explain viewing Ke$ha and Katy Perry music videos when people use my computer... (I can't stand them but their songs are just too darn catchy that I'll find myself singing them without knowing it!)

Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything so that he may do it no more.A hasty quarrel kindles fire,and urgent strife sheds blood.If you blow on a spark, it will glow;if you spit on it, it will be put out; and both come out of your mouth

Listening to Within Temptation's new CD, the Unforgiving! I love it so far. (Also mixing in some Rage from BOLA, because I'm in the mood.)

Sirenia also came out with a new album, which I'll listen to next.. I liked most of The 13th Floor...we'll see. (They change singers constantly and I think that the CDs generally have some clunkers mixed in with a few very good songs.)

Amon Amarth just came out with a new CD last month, I think. Went to Best Buy after leaving church to pick it up...my husband is in 7th heaven right now (Sorry, AA fans, but my ears kind of hurt ).

Oh, music!

We watched Metallica music videos and had a few beers all night yesterday. LOL I'm sure you would get along.

(Although I can sing Guardians of Aasgaard word for word. I will only do that in front of him because...well, a female singing Viking death metal? Not pretty.)

"Whether it’s the guillotine, the hangman’s noose, or reciprocal endeavors of militaristic horror, radical evil will never be recompensed with radical punishment.

Finally got the Karmacode CD, but I can't listen to the rest of the songs because I like this one too much.

LOL! I just might have to do that for one of my own personal rocksteady compilations!

It's wonderful, although, like most of these newer Trojan Records comps, it's most of the same songs that show up on all these comps with a few rare or as-to-yet unreleased songs. Since I love just about everything Duke Reid touched between 1965 and 1971, this is right up my alley.

For anyone who loves symphonic metal, the new Within Temptation CD is not to be missed. I can't stop listening to it.

Shot in the Dark is the best song, IMO.

Hm, clear, yes. Operatic? Not so much. She isn't like Tarja-era Nightwish. More like Delain.

Thanks I can't count how many times I've wanted to like a band, and then I heard the vocals and it just ruined it for me.

That's my favorite part of symphonic metal....some of the female singers are amazing, but of course YMMV on what you like! (I actually like the new Nightwish than Tarja...if I wanted to listen to opera, I would listen to opera.)

To each his own.

Some days, programming my bi-weekly podcast is a delight. This is not one of them. Thankfully, songs like this make it worth it. I'm not playing this particular one (I think I've settled on "Here to Stay") but listening through the Sheer Terror catalog has made a relatively stressful day that much better and easier to deal with.

Music is great. Vocals range from average to oh-my-God-is-this-level-of-awful-even-possible. Haven't had a chance to really pay attention to the movie part of the experience... too busy writing posts on OC.net at the moment

I recently got a CD of Beethoven's late Choral Music (excluding the monumental Ninth Symphony and Missa Solemnis) and I'm absolutely glued to this one charming (yeah, I know charming doesn't really characterize Beethoven's music) piece called the Bundeslied (op. 122) which is scored for 3 part chorus, 2 soloists, 2 horns, 2 bassoons and 2 clarinets. The text is a poem of Goethe about the joys of enjoying others' company.

Bleh, I think that a lot of these symph metal music videos are so trite and uninspired. Chick who is probably not goth dressed like a goth? Check. Smeared makeup and black eyeliner? Check. (It's totally okay to have her as a non-goth, guys, I'm sure that the men won't care either way)

Heh, I'm such a frustrated director. (Is that the right phrase? It doesn't sound right for some reason.)
